DWARF_ADD_AT_STRING(3)     Library Functions Manual     DWARF_ADD_AT_STRING(3)

NAME
     dwarf_add_AT_string - create and attach a string class attribute

LIBRARY
     DWARF Access Library (libdwarf, -ldwarf)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libdwarf.h>

     Dwarf_P_Attribute
     dwarf_add_AT_string(Dwarf_P_Debug dbg, Dwarf_P_Die die, Dwarf_Half attr,
         char *str, Dwarf_Error *err);

DESCRIPTION
     Function dwarf_add_AT_string() creates an attribute descriptor belonging
     to the `string' class and attaches it to the debugging information entry
     referenced by argument die.  The created attribute descriptor will have
     DWARF form DW_FORM_strp.

     Argument dbg should reference a DWARF producer instance allocated using
     dwarf_producer_init(3) or dwarf_producer_init_b(3).

     Argument die should reference a debugging information entry allocated
     using dwarf_new_die(3).

     Argument attr should specify the attribute code for the created attribute
     descriptor.

     Argument str should hold a pointer to a NUL-terminated string which will
     become the value of the created attribute descriptor.

     If argument err is not NULL, it will be used to store error information
     in case of an error.

RETURN VALUES
     On success, function dwarf_add_AT_string() returns the created attribute
     descriptor.  In case of an error, function dwarf_add_AT_string() returns
     DW_DLV_BADADDR and sets the argument err.

ERRORS
     Function dwarf_add_AT_string() can fail with:

     [DW_DLE_ARGUMENT]       One of the arguments dbg, die or str was NULL.

     [DW_DLE_MEMORY]         An out of memory condition was encountered during
                             the execution of the function.
